RubiesBanking: Nah, you will be suprised to know infinix have used a Qualcomm chipset in the past on one of their phones. Besides mediatek is improving, it won't benefit anyone if Qualcomm is the only chip manufacturer in the game. They can decide to slam a huge price tag on their latest chipset since they have no rival. The redmi note 8 pro and some mid budget phones uses the mediatek g90t which is competing with the Snapdragon 720g.
I agree with you. MediaTek gaming processors are really improving and MediaTek Helio G90T is one of the best gaming processors.
3zaza3: The Camon 16 Premier is a midrange device recently released by Tecno Mobile which packs as 90Hz screen refresh rate and the Mediatek Helio G90T chipset among other features. The Redmi Note 9s and Pro have proven to be among the best value phones money can buy right now. How well do they stack up against each other? The Note 9s/Pro uses a better Snapdragon 720G processor but does not have a high screen refresh rate nor as much RAM as the Camon 16 Premier. In this review we find out which is the better value for money. This is a detailed comparison covering all features, speed test and camera test between the Tecno Camon 16 Premier and the Redmi Note 9s.
lauraright: The Realme C11 is officially scheduled to arrive in Europe, revealed after a number#DareToBe teasers on Twitter. The launch is set to happen in the early hours of August 26, with information on pricing likely to be revealed at the event.
Pretiboi: Definitely the Infinix Note 8 will be as good as the Zero 8. Infinix are really doing great with the kind of devices they produce these days.
For the Note 8i, nothing much has been revealed about it except we know that it will be having the same SoC with that of the Note 8. Wouldn't that be lovely? Anyways, more info will be rolled out as soon as i have them.
Even the Mediatek Helio G90T processor in the device is a good news and I am sure the battery section in the device would also be same.
If you're looking for a new affordable smartphone with good specs, Realme has two new phones for you, and they might have an edge on the competition.
These new phones are the Realme 7 and 7 Pro, two phones which have been out in India for a short while but have just been launched internationally. We'll run you through their specs so you can tell if they're for you.
In the UK, the Realme 7 starts at £179 (around $230 / AU$320) for 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage (though there are other combinations available) while the Realme 7 Pro costs £279 (roughly $360 / AU$500).
We don't know about Australian or US availability for the phones yet, and since the company is pretty new to the west, it's hard to even know what the likelihood of that is.
At those prices, the two phones compete mainly with the Xiaomi Redmi and Moto G ranges of smartphones, but as you'll see, the new Realme handsets have a few impressive specs to get the edge on that competition.
The Realme 7 has a 6.5-inch FHD+ display, and unlike most affordable phones it has a 90Hz refresh rate, making motion displayed look smooth. There's also a punch-hole cut-out in the top left of the screen.
The phone has four rear cameras - a 48MP main, 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro and 2MP black-and-white snapper - the version of the phone previously shown off in some regions actually had a 64MP main camera, but if you're just using your phone for social media snaps you shouldn't mind the drop in megapixels.
The Realme 7 uses the MediaTek Helio P95 chipset, which is a mid-range processor optimized for gaming, and it comes with 4GB, 6GB or 8GB of RAM depending on which version you opt for.
There's also a 5,000mAh battery which can be charged up at 30W - Realme says this will power up the phone to full in 65 minutes.
The Realme 7 Pro is slightly more premium than the standard Realme 7 in most, but not all, ways.
The handset has a 6.4-inch screen, so smaller than its non-Pro sibling, but it uses Super AMOLED tech for punchier colors. It's also got a 60Hz refresh rate, which is lower than the 90Hz of the standard Realme 7. It's got the same resolution though, at 1080 x 2400.
The Realme 7 Pro has a slightly upgraded camera array compared to its sibling - there's a 64MP main, 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro and 2MP black-and-white snapper. There's also a 32MP selfie camera on the front.
In terms of internals, there's a Snapdragon 720G chipset here, which will likely return better benchmark scores than the MediaTek one, though we'll need to test them both to see. That's joined by 8GB of RAM - there's only one sizing option available.
The battery is 4,500mAh, so smaller than the Realme 7, but it supports speedy 65W charging, which Realme says will fully charge the phone in 34 minutes.
Guys what are your take on this Device?
For me, Realme 7 is better than the Pro version and this is because of its cost with the new Mediatek processor. Besides, even its camera is quite good.
Infinix Hot 10 and Infinix Hot 10 lite. They are hotter than the Hot 9 and Hot 9 play that was released barely 5 months ago. Sporting a gaming-centric processor, MediaTek Helio G70, a punch-hole display, slimmer bezels, and a humongous 5,200 milliampere battery. The Infinix Hot 10 is obviously hotter than the Hot 9. However, The Hot 10 lite on the other hand is a bit of a disappointment - it shares the same specification and design with the Infinix Smart 5. In fact, The Infinix Smart 5 and the Hot 10 lite are basically the same phones, with the same internals, with the same specification, and with the same design.
Infinix Hot 10 Lite with Mediatek Helio A20 processor is meant for the normal uses and hence this is also a good option.

Samson1851: I’ve been using the Tecno Camon 16 Premier for the past one month and it has been a fast, smooth, and powerful experience thanks to the combination of the Helio G90T super gaming Processor, 90Hz screen refresh rate, 180Hz touch sampling rate, 8GB Ram, 128GB UFS 2.1 Fast Storage, Fast Face unlock, Fast Fingerprint Unlock and 33W Fast Charging. You may watch to find out more...
Mystiq25: In the last few months, I have seen a significant improvement in the caliber of phones released by the transsion company. infinix note 7, zero 8 camon 16, these phones have all come with a better processor than we used to have in the past, and now the latest infinix hot 10 and tecno spark 6, two entry level smartphones have all come with helio G70 SOC and a minimum of 3gb and 64gb storage. All thanks to the emergence of new Chinese brands into the Nigeria market, Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo and the rest, if not for these brands I'm sure all the transsion phones I have mentioned above will come with these processors Helio A22, A25, P22, P23, maybe p60 on zero 8. Competition is good in a any business, consumers are the biggest winners.
I agree with you. Smartphones like Infinix Zero 8 and Tecno Camon 16 Premier with their MediaTek Helio G90T processor and powerful cameras are doing really well in the market.
Yagazee: I need a brand new Realme phone. I want to upgrade from Reslme 3pro which I bought from Aliexpress. The Realme 6 ticks all the boxes for me. It's been more than a year since my last buy at Aliexpress and I don't want to wait too long without a smart phone. Help!
Chuck Realme 6 and go for Realme 7. It has a better Mediatek Helio G95 processor and even the battery of the smartphone is quite good.
maatie: Whatever you do please don't purchase the infinix zero 8 crap however it also depends on your usage and pocket for any samsung product you might want to go for, for those in the price range of the zero8, you can check out a21,a31,and even m11, and you may add to the money to purchase a71..however you can walk in to any samsung outlet near you
I don't agree. Infinix Zero 8 with its Mediatek Helio G80 processor and the smart camera section is one of the best mid-range smartphones.
AmosAkins: Redmi 9A is also a good buy about 42k , Realme c3 goes for 45k too the 3gb ram version ....... Umidigi and Nokia phones around that price . Just search on google and check the key specs You good to go
Realme C3 is a really good option for the budget gamers with MediaTek Helio G70 processor and the powerful battery setup. Amazing device.
As per the latest news, Qualcomm is gearing to launch a budget segment 5G processor for the smartphones in the Snapdragon 400 series. What are your views on this?
Redpanter1: The only reason you'd choose the redmi 9a over the umidigi A7 Pro is brand, no one needs to tell you that.... The better specification of umidigi A7 pro is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf.
Best price: Umidigi A7 Pro 4gb 64gb - #40990
Xiaomi redmi 9a - #40k

I bet people will choose Redmi 9A because of the better Mediatek processor. MediaTek Helio G25 processor is much better than P23.
harryodilli19: The realme 6 will be launched in Kenya on September 2. The highlights of this phone are: - Android 10 (Realme UI) - MediaTek Helio G90T processor with the HyperEngine gaming technology - RAM: 8 GB; Internal: 128 GB - Primary quad-cam: 64 MP wide + 8 MP ultra-wide + 2 MP macro lens + 2 MP b/w, depth - Selfie:16 MP - 4300 mAh battery with 30W fast charging - Colour variants: Comet Blue, Comet White
It retails at KES 30000, and with that money, the company is throwing in a free realme band that costs KES 3000. The band comes in black, yellow and green. The device will be available in offline and online shops. What do you think?
Launched and I expect it to do really well because of the MediaTek Helio G90T processor. Even the camera section of the device is brilliant at the price.
MartinsD12: It's Good to see tecno pouvoir 4 pro even with all the critics make the list but then the list is incomplete without nokia 5.3, redmi 9 series making the list
Tecno Pouvoir 4 pro is actually quite a good smartphone with its MediaTek Helio P22 processor and smart camera and storage specs. It also has a good battery backup.
bennyefosa19: I like what I see and with the right price, this phone will have a lot of buyers. But honestly, instead of the Mediatek helio P35 if Moto starts integrating the Mediatek helio G series (either G70 or G80), the consumers migh just get doubled. Young people want more options for smartphone gaming in the market brh
Absolutely. It's high time now that Motorola starts using Mediatek gaming processor as they are the need of the hour.
